The plastic is still good you can get patches for it too! You kinda want to patch it or remove it before the wind gets it.. ask me how I know! Oh yes my greenhouse ithe the door open was crushed but the wind! Lol
Thanks I have took the plastic off for the time being for the reason you have said and the wind doesn't take it away. Thinking of just saying and getting a better one in the future
rebar pvc piping create arches to fit that cover secure with bricks all the way round rather than digging in
Try growing toms outside, I got a great harvest a few years back from outside toms. If the weather was anything like last year you should do alright. Sorry that it broke it’s a real bummer! Chin up! 👍🏻🤠
Hopefully yea will be doing a few toms outside kind of want the weather to be like last year and kind of don't at the same time😂.
I have a glass greenhouse and an irate badger got in an argument with it and smashed loads of glass which then caused the panes above it to fall down. It took me an age to get it fixed as it took two of us and a lot of RUclips videos to work out how to do it. There will be a way for your greenhouse, maybe someone would give one away on freecycle? You can get polycarbonate or perspex for the windows to make it lighter and cheaper.
Omg I know badgers were mean but not that bad. I would love a glass greenhouse think it will be my next big spend think I would be the same watching lots of RUclips videos on how to put it up.
I have been looking on the FB pages for anyone giving one away or selling just no luck yet
Oh goodness, what a mess. Hope you have friends to help put it all back.
Thanks. We will get it sorted and build better
Ohh that's sad day 4 ya mukkaa .....them poles are useless it seems ...but u can fix it up I'm sure
Yea they aren't the strongest they looked thicker in the pictures. Will just go for a better built one next time
R reet marra just subbed via the potty mouth, don't be to disheartened marra. Think most of us starting out went thru it have ya thort about making your own with scaffold poles and polly pipe and buying and cover to fit your size that what a ended up doing ;
Thanks for subbing great group potty mouth isn't it . Been looking through a few different ideas going to save some money up and get something sorted. Not the best at DIY that's my big fear 😂
@@JacobsonFamilyAllotment depending on where ya located folks might be willing to help and there's always youtube lol ;
i grow all my tomatoes outdoors
I had planned to grow some outside this year just not all. Getting a small greenhouse for at my house untill I sort a long term greenhouse out.
My tomatoes grew best outside last year! The ones in the polytunnel over heated 👍
Yea probably not going to need greenhouses soon the way this weather is going.
This is the worst 😭 I’m sorry. Get some duct tape and patch it!
it is but will keep going .Waiting for all this horrible weather to pass then going to have a look.
Is the tubing a smaller or bigger size. Than that of the inside or outside of a Steel Tube Mop Handle ? You could try re-enforcing the tubing. By sliding one type of tube inside or over that of the tunnel tubing.
I am go to have to check that I have a feeling it's thinner the bars are very thin. Will have a check next time I am Up thanks
@@JacobsonFamilyAllotment Try building and putting some Wooden Trellis up all around it. To break the strength of the Wind. 2 feet away and that gives you some room to walk all around the outsides.
Try and build your own, by saving the cover. If you can find someone giving away a kids trampoline, you can cut it in half use the half circles as the roof hoops and the sides make up rights. Because it’s got child safety rules the metal is far stronger in the trampolines. Anyway keep the cover. Another option to use are those poles they use in tents. If you can anchor them and use guy ropes. Even scrap timber you can find for free to help make a triangle frame you can nail the old cover to.
Thanks. I have saved the cover got a few holes in it hopefully be fine
I have a kids trampoline in the back garden might start eyeing that up kids wouldn't be happy tho😂.
Thanks for the ideas
@@JacobsonFamilyAllotment you can get tape that can repair holes in poly tunnels. Best if you can borrow some. Walk round and see if you can see anyone with taped up holes on a tunnel. Be cheeky and ask if they have some you can have or buy a bit off of them.
@@andrewhead6267 thanks I used that gorilla tape to patch it last time worked alright but came off a little feel like that's what caused alot of the damage. Al have a neb around there is a load of pollytunnles on the plots hopefully get a lend
Oh no Anthony just gutted for you😢 but hopefully you can get sorted before growing season. Chin up keep warm 🥰🇨🇦
Thank you means a lot hopefully get it sorted before it's time to get the tomatoes out.
I had one of these load of rubbish
Yea definitely won't be buying another for the plot not fit for that use. Will hopefully find a better one soon
Don’t be despondent you can always make your own go on RUclips for some ideas best of luck. Show us the outcome
Hi my friend keep an eye out for second hand greenhouse but you can grow tomatoes outside crimson crush are good and blight resistant.
Thanks I have been looking out for them since. Looking through my seeds packets I have a few that good blight resistant that I will be growing outdoors
Look for a second hand green house you can get one anywhere between £20 - £100 what you can afford
After I calmed down I started looking have been keeping an eye out on Facebook pages. Hopefully will find one soon.
Plenty of tomatoes you can grow outside. If we have the weather they say, outside tomatoes will love it.
Luckily they ones I have already started this month can grow outside maybe one inside it's just keeping them frost free until then.
Hopefully for my sake it's a hot one and I can grow them well outside.
Oh no 😲
That’s so frustrating mate. Especially as it was sheltered between the shed and fence.
Have no idea how it's been hit that bad. Going to have to change plans for this year
That happened to me about two years ago mate I feel for you hopefully you will bounce back stay positive
Thanks will do. trying to make a positive and think what I could turn it into.might just save for a bigger better one
Should have put slabs along the side after you buried the polythene
